I didn't want to answer for fear of sounding cavalier bu the figures mentioned here are very low. I started out in 2005 officially having done just one illustration project prior to that. I did six months earning nothing at all, then it steadily rose. The thing with illustration is you'll get a zillion little one day rush jobs... pieces of editorial, or treating bits of typography or whatever, and the client will pay a good set price or day rate for that. And then maybe three/four times a year you get a big project come in and those really boost the year end figure hugely, but even without those you'd be doing more than 50-60k.
